Comments Thread For: Carl Froch Discusses His Side of The "Amir Khan Feud"

[PensionKiller]

LOL. Froch is literally like a school kid here. Anyway, he does have a point and a right to be slightly peeved off as all Amir has done lately is slag off the British Public and yet his fights are on box office and are as dull as a door knob.

Froch was in 2 classic wars with Pascal and Taylor and narrowly edged out Dirrell after the American Challenger spent 9 rounds running around the ring, stinking out the fight.

Froch's resume is better, Froch is tougher and doesn't get KTFO by journeymen, Froch is more entertaining (that's not even close), Froch DOES NOT CHERRY PICK AT ALL. (Pascal, Taylor, Dirrell and now Kessler -----> AMAZING).

Froch >>>>>>>>> Khan and it's not even close and they've had a similar number of fights.

How long did it take Froch to be a title holder? Quite a while and he is a lot older so should really have a better resume. Whether they have the same amount of fights is not Khan's fault. Froch does have a better resume although Pascal isn't great, Taylor is clearly done and Dirrell was green. Bets that Kessler beats him

Yes the Bresdis Prescott fight was embarassing, but he has gone back and done some work.

Pascall was in a war, but Amir has been in some good fights also.

Taylor was not a war. Exciting at points, but Froch was getting schooled until the 12th.

Amir did not slag off the British press. Infact he wished them a merry xmas and said the Newcastle crowd was great and they made him want to fight here more. Yes I agree that he shouldn't compain too much and hopefully with age, he will do it a lot less. He also seems to be less arrogant and perhaps at 23 now, he is turning into a man mentally.

Froch does take on everyone which I love, but he does nothave the skill set as Amir, just a great chin, power and workrate.

I'm not going to respond to the other posters as they can't even form coherent sentences so it's not worth it.

Froch has done things the usual way, working his way to the British and Commonwealth titles before taking the WBC strap after Inkin ducked him twice. Froch did not have the monetary clout and hype generator of Warren behind him to get him so many well staged fights so quickly for a title. They have had a very similar number of fights - and are in very similar positions. Khan however, because of his popularity and the money behind him can cherry pick pretty much anyone (see: Kotelnik) after getting KTFO by a journeyman noone had heard of. Kahn should have been back of the line for years after that disgraceful performance against Prescott.

No, of course it's not 'Khan's fault' they have had the same number of fights. Just like it's not his fault the Sun rises in the East. It is however, fact.

Pascal, Taylor and Dirrell are so far ahead of anyone on Kahn's resume it's a joke. His best win is Kotelnik by a mile but he was featherfisted (suprise, suprise) and even he is nowhere near as good as the aforementioned three fighters. Salita and Barrera wins are a joke. What kind of guy goes down after the first punch? Oh wait, I know: A handpicked Kahn opponent. Don't say he wasn't handpicked, we all know how quickly that WBA strapped would have been dropped if the challenger was as someone as dangerous as Maidana.

I'm sick and tired of hearing this "Froch was getting school until the 12th before a lucky KO". It's literally nothing short of a delirious lie. Press row had Taylor ahead by around ~2 points going into 12 and one of them had Froch ahead by a point. Doesn't sound like a schooling to me. Even the official judges had it a SD going into the 12.

I don't say Amir slagged off the press - he has however been pulling the race card recently using the old Floyd Mayweather line: "If I were white - I'd be a mega star". Which is slightly strange (and in my eyes A DISGRACE) because Kahn is easily the most famous boxer in Britain along with Ricky Hatton - they are both household names here.

The only reason Kahn is hyped is because of Warren. He is literally about as good as Audley 'A-Farce' Harrison.

true.... but froch robbed dirrell tho.

Interesting stuff. Funny comments from Froch. I don't get why he hates Amir so much though. When Amir lost to Prescott guy's like Hatton gave Amir nothing but encouragement but for some reason, Froch started blasting him.

Khan > froch
it must upset carl too actually know this,his delusion has worn off and he must face the harsh reality that nobody gives a flying **** about him,even in his own country.he is taking it quite well,but im sure he will relieve his frustrations against kessler when he is hitting air then proceeding to getting knocked out

I thought Khan's last win was pretty entertaining.

Froch's resume is better? Isn't he also over a decade older?

Khan is a far superior boxer to Froch and after a few more years under Freddie's tutelage he'll be light years ahead. People will forget who Froch is after he loses the next two bouts in the tourney.

[Dynamite Kid]

Froch is right about Salita. And he will only have more bullets when Khan negotiates his career around fighting old small men like JMM and past it fighters like Hatton, non punchers like Spadafora.

The guy is a con job.

[Weebler I]

Froch didn't rob anyone, it was the judges call. All he's really saying here is Khan needs to fight somebody good, and think most of us are saying that.
